Num Noms - set to take the Collectibles Crown

Num Noms are little scented collectible toys that are made to look like food. Num Noms have that cute factor that both little girls and their moms love and, in terms of collectible toys which are all the rage at the moment, they are set to take the crown.

So what are Num Noms?

In a nutshell, Nums are adorable, scented, squishy characters and Noms are scented characters that do something special – either light up, work as a stamp or are filled with lip gloss.

The Nums are the outer, soft, squishy characters, and the Noms are the inner, hard-shelled characters that are either *motorized to scoot around, filled with flavoured lip gloss, are light up characters or act like *ink stamps or *erasers. You can nestle a Num inside a Nom for fun mix and match play, stack them high or race them against each other.

Chiquita Patrizi, spokesperson for Prima Toys says: “Num Noms are an ideal gift for girls who enjoy collecting figurines and characters. They are fun to play with as each Nom has a specific fun element to it and each Num is scented. Collectibles are all the rage this year and Num Noms fit right in with this trend.”

Num Noms are available in Mystery Cups that resemble yoghurt or milk cartons. Each Mystery Cup contains one Num and one Nom. The toys are also available as playsets, lunchbox sets and starter packs. They can be purchased at toy stores and retailers from RSP: R 129.99
